Empty String in entity-condition

[Foo Shyn Chung]

Hi all,

I need to check a field for empty string value in my entity-condition. I
search through the net but can't find a workable solution for me (tried
using nullField or removing the value attributes but both doesn't work).

What i need to do actually is to verify a field so that it is not empty:

<condition-expr field-name="batchNo" operator="not-equals" value="" />

Any idea on this?

Thanx

Check out the use of ignore-if-empty and ignore-if-null in
InventoryReserveServices.xml

Thanks&  Regards

<condition-expr field-name="batchNo" operator="not-equals"
from-field="nullField" />

Should work. Please see the examples in PartyServices.xml of party manager.

For some reason nullField doesn't work on our component...but after
changing to using nullvalue as suggested by Brajesh it worked...i'm still
trying to figure out what is the issue.
